back in the saddle again

Phew, I've spent the past few weeks running around like a crazy person. We moved into our new place, spent a week unpacking and organizing, then hosted house guests (including an adorable 2 year old boy) last weekend.

I started going through knitting and reading withdrawal about a week ago, with my fingers just itching to SSK and K2tog and to page through books rather than simply arrange them on shelves.

Kylie's still enamored of my long-term crochet project, the stripy (human) blanket:2/3 of the boxes have been unpacked, and it's now completely livable around here, though not exactly ready for a Martha Stewart photo shoot. I rather get the impression that the last 1/3 of the boxes aren't exactly essential for everyday life, as we seem to be managing just fine without them.

Next on the agenda is tending to the blocking pile:That's a lot of knitting, my friends. Prepare for a number of FO posts over the next couple of weeks!

You've been busy! There are still a couple of boxes in the garage that we never did unpack and I don't feel like thinking about what to do with the contents, so they are still out there. Don't do as I do!

Gaaahh -- isn't moving the most overwhelming chore?! Know you're glad to be seeing the finish line.And what an interesting looking pile of FO's you have there -- can't wait to see what you've been up to.
